Subject: RE: Any history on Grandfathers Clock?
Norfolk Singer Walter Pardon sang a song called 'The Old Man's Advice' which used the tune of Grandfather's Clock.
Walter's song came from his uncle Billy Gee and dates back to the re-establishment of the Agricultural Workers Union by George Edwards at the beginning of the 20th century.
